Vajra Fist Posted March 3, 2020 In the space between dreaming and waking this morning, part of a poem I had read a long time ago, which had lodged itself in my subconscious, came back to me. It just kept repeating over and over, and each time seemed to be imbued with a deeper meaning. Think you guys might appreciate it: On either shore the gibbons' chatter sounded without pause While my light boat skimmed past ten thousand sombre crags. - Li Po Any old Chinese poems that speak of cultivation that stuck out for you guys? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
